Thanks, my Sister and My Bro-in-Law have wrap business, so they were doing it, it was done in 3 days, it can be done in 1 day easily, just depends on quality you expect

Nice real nice....

I wanted to do matte white pearl. Then it was mat red...
Then at sema there was so many new wraps out could not decide.

To do it wright have to dismantle a lot. And after having a new front-end put on have to hold off till the paint cures.

Considering the cost its not that bad to do when a hi end paint job is 8k-10k maybe even more. And yes I know there are cheeper paint jobs out there but this is not a car to be taking to maaco haha

vinyl can cost 600-1000+ depending on size type & brand.
If your a full time dealer buying cases of rolls the price would be way better just like any business.

Not that much, we took off all the moldings around the car, emblems, hood grille, wheels, roof moldings, hood vents, fender-liners. And majority of this parts are really easy to remove

Hey Arlen,

How does the car sound with the resonator deleted, do you have a sound clip?

Well, one thing i personally consider if i would have 2012 S is that if you cut ur original mufflers, u ll likely have some issues with manufacturers car warranty.

Second thing is i have an aftermarket muflers+aftermarket replica S63 Tips, so i would just get exhaust tips only and diffuser, it would look like s63 and all the mods will be "cosmetical", so u ll less likely have issues with warranty
